Google Password Alert Chrome Extension To Protect Your Google Account

Looks like Google has another nice thing for Google account users, yep that's you. Google in it's official blog posted about the "Phishing" page. Now what's a phishing page, it is a site run by people looking to receive and steal your password and you may not even know it. That is really dangerous.

This is to help keep your Google account safe."To help keep your account safe today has launched Password Alert,a free-source chrome extension that protects your Google and Google Apps for Work Accounts." reported and posted by Drew Hintz, Security Engineer and Justin Kosslyn, Google Ideas in Google Official Blog.

Well how does it work, Password Alert will show you warning if you type your password in Non-Google pages or Websites. This protects the user from phishing attacks.

For consumer accounts "Once you have installed and initialized Password Alert, Chrome will remember a "Scrambled" version of your Google Account password" reported Google Official Blog. If you type password into Non-Google site it will give you a warning and tell you that you are at risk of being phished so you can set another password and protect yourself. shown in below image.

After entering the market Nokia is playing with full focus to capture market again. We have a new leak of the Nokia 9.

The Nokia 9, based on the renders (above) looks like it will have a curved display or near-to-no bezzel. The chin of the phone is less, just like Samsung's Infinity display. It has a front facing camera, a speaker or speakers (hopefully). Looks like Nokia will go with software buttons this time too.

At back it has a dual camera setup, flash and Nokia branding. I wish that Nokia 9 would come in Matte Black finish. Looking at the image, the smartphone looks like a phablet.

Hey guys welcome to Asknext. This is a new series we have started called Cool Android Setups, where we would showcase Cool Android Setups by you.

This Setups comes from Andre Sari. If you want to enter email us: srikanthyt1@gmail.com

The setup is very simple and easy to use. It has got a beautiful gradient wallpaper with Weather widget on Top-Center, followed by a Zooper widget - Google search bar. The search bar kinda blends with the setup giving a minimal look. Below the Google Search bar you have the social media apps namingly: Whatsapp, Facebook, Google Plus, Snapchat and Instagram. Followed by the app drawer. Well as you can see there is no button to access the apps like in Marshmallow or below Android OS versions, certainly it looks like Andre is using Google Pixel launcher or some other launcher which I think could be Nova Launcher. Icon pack used is Grace UX - Icon Pack. List of Apps used: Icon Pack: Grace UX Widgets: Trident for Zooper Wallpaper: Galaxy S8 Wallpaper Pack - Link.
